By James Prestridge| Close-Up Culture@ Rising star Aspen Martinez joins us on Close-Up Culture to talk about her big-screen debut in the A24 Sundance success, Opus. Hi Aspen, welcome to Close-Up Culture. How did the opportunity to star in Opus come about? Hi, thank you for having me! Opus was filmed in New Mexico, where I’m from and I was invited to audition for Maude. I auditioned, then had a callback, and my 3rd meet up was with Ayo. We just had a ton of fun for that one.
